Rereading is another one of the great pleasures of life. As captivating and hilarious as I had found it 8 years ago. Wholeheartedly recommended!
Because of the author's reputation and the cover art, I initially thought this book was intended for children. But it is an action-packed account of an incredibly adventurous life that can be read by anybody. Roald Dahl battled snakes and lions in Africa in the 1930s and struggled not to be killed by the incompetence of the British military in World War II. He truly had nine lives!
